An adorable antique rolled gold sweetheart pendant charm from the Victorian Aesthetic movement of around 1880-1890.
This is a small pendant in a lovely chubby heart shape The rolled gold plating is a subtle rose gold colour which is a lovely shade that is characteristic of old gold. The heart is engraved on both sides in a very pretty rose and leaf pattern. In the Victorian language of flowers the rose symbolises deep love and marriage.
We have added a new Italian gold plated sterling silver chain, so this little antique beauty is ready to wear right out of the box, the perfect love token gift! The chain is a brighter gold than the pendant but the colour will soon tone down once it is worn.
MATERIALS: pendant rolled gold, chain gold plated sterling silver
MEASUREMENTS: pendant 5/8" (2.2cm) tall, 5/8" wide (1.5cm), 6mm thick, the chain measures 18" (46cm)

CONDITION: cosmetically the pendant is in very good condition, under very close inspection we see tiny dots of wear to the heavy gold layer, it looks worse in the our magnified photos and isn't particularly noticeable to the eye.
